The papers below are examples of my recent work. Please contact me if you would like to receive more papers on any of these topics.

Paper 1: http://www.cp.umist.ac.uk/jcse/vol2/Paper14/v2p14.html

This is a recent paper on our silane work. It was presented at the Conference “Advances in Corrosion Protection by Organic Coatings”, Cambridge, U.K., September 14-17, 1999, and published in the electronic Journal of Corrosion Science and Engineering (JCSE), Volume 2, paper 14, 2001.

Paper 2: W.J.van Ooij et al., “Silane-based Chromate Replacements for Corrosion Control, Paint Adhesion, and Rubber Bonding”, Surface Engineering, 16, 386 (2000).

This is an overview of our recent work with silanes for corrosion protection and bonding.

Paper 3: K.D. Conners et al., “Comparison of Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and Electrochemical Noise Measurement of Plasma-Polymerized Films as Pretreatment for Cold-Rolled Steel”, British Corrosion Journal, 35, 141 (2000)

This is an example of our electrochemical work.

Paper 4: J.M. Kim and W.J. van Ooij, “Study of the Compound Effects on the Adhesion Layer between Brass and the Squalene Model Compound by GPC and TOF-SIMS”, submitted to the Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology.

This paper is an example of our rubber bonding studies and the use of TOFSIMS in the study of rubber-metal interfaces.

Paper 5: Donglu Shi et al., “Multi-Layer Coating of Ultrathin Polymer Films on Nanoparticles of Alumina by Plasma Treatment”, Presented at the MRS meeting in Boston, MA, December 6-8, 2000.

This paper has been accepted for publicaiton in the Proceedings. It is an example of our work in which we surface-modify fine powders, including nanoparticles.
